It's almost like people think that the gravs can survive on the front line without hundreds of people supporting them through the rear echelons. Also most of those SA's, chefs, clerks etc.. have all very likely done some time in a fighting company. It's what makes the Corp a Corp rather than a regiment. The corps will always need outside support such as navy ships, artillery and air support but for most parts it's bootnecks supporting bootnecks. Be it cooking their food, fixing their trucks, ensuring they get the right kit or most of all making sure they get paid. A gravs best friends are the chefs and the pay clerks!
@@thetoxicappletta1624 they are moving to a "surgical strike force" and working more with the Navy than doing the whole light role infantry shiz they did in Afghan. Much more boat deployment etc rather than drivers/pilots/mountain leaders. It's much more becoming the "Navy's Defence" than the whole "Elite infantry reg" thing they had going for a while.
Do most people choose specialisations? It's annoying because I really don't see any that will be good for me and I'd be doing a role just for the reason of just doing it
As far as i'm aware, you spend at least two years on general duties but it's only under exceptional circumstances. But still remember not everything is technical like clerk. for example you could be a mountain leader, or maybe specialize in specific weapons like snipers or machine guns theres more or less something for everyone. Regardless maybe you should talk to a someone 0345 600 1444 (the marines number)
some C**t I heard people specialise well before they apply for SBS Only the damn good ones make it through after just 2 years of general duties Plus I though you can only take it when you commanding officer or senior officer deems your ready Because they have to recommend you or something
It really pisses me off seeing they way most of them wear the Green Lid...The globe and Laurel is meant to be 1/4" from the centre left eye not the back of the skull. In my day they would have been instantly filled in!
Like the way they throw in special boat service like it’s just any another course you turn up to for 6 weeks and qualify 😅😅
Markiatto _ 😂😂😂
If it was simple as that it would just be ‘BS’😂

The mountain leaders and the sniper corse are just the hardest and the best in the rm

who joins the marines and thinks i want to spend my time in a storage room moving shit
Exactly 😂😂
Probably did a tour of Afghan as a rifleman and had enough
He said so he can gain a promotion faster and go on from there?
What if you don't know what you wanna specialise in? I want to be a Royal marine commando but the specialisations dontplead to me
Then you will just stay as a general duties marine. It is encouraged to have a specialization as it will civi life, so it is something to consider.
